Chinese Spirituality through a Contemporary Artistic Lens: The Art of Chi Hang Leong
Li, Dan
Art Education, v74 n2 p52-57 2021
An art curriculum is a composite of cultural expressions, the values and experiences that students and teachers bring with them into the classroom, and the social contexts of the learning environment (Kraehe, 2010). In developing art curricular materials, educators are encouraged to integrate a diversity of cultural perspectives. The contemporary art of Chi Hang Leong can be used as part of a multicultural art curriculum to explore the cultural perspectives associated with Chinese spirituality. In this instructional resource, educators and students will learn about Chinese spirituality, religions, and cultural beliefs through examining symbolism in illustrations of cultural practices, such as incense burning and the lion dance by artist Chi Hang Leong.
